    In my opinion this looks amazing and I can not wait to see it.

    I am a fan of 70's Elvis, I dig Vegas and the jumpsuits with the capes. Would have been cool to see him in concert.

    Anyone here at Elvis's final concert in Indy?

    Look forward to seeing this in the theater. Was never a big Elvis fan, but when I was a kid, the women in our family lost their minds when Elvis was on TV. When he died, the local radio stations played nothing but his music for three days straight.

    I still remember the day he died like it was yesterday!

    The 68 comeback special was probably my favorite Elvis era, but I do dig 70s Elvis as well.

    I think the 68 special was just the absolute definition of cool.

    Mom and Dad were there at Market Square. I believe June 26 of '77......Somewhere there about. They have both gone the way of Elvis, but with less fanfare.

    This looks interesting in that I don't believe a lot of people were around when he became famous. I remember listening to his records and albums even before I entered school, as I had an older sister who was infatuated with him. Went to see his corny movies as well. To me he was a very big thing....until the Beatles came along and completely changed the music world.

    Anyone see it this weekend? From everything I am reading, I hear it is terrific.

    Did not know if this was kid friendly. Elvis loved the ladies, just was not sure what it showed.

    I have not seen it, but I did read a review a couple of days ago that said the pg-13 rating is mainly for drug use and language. According to the review, there’s one f-bomb. It did say there’s a lot of implied sexual stuff, but other than one glimpse of a girls caboose, no sex scenes.

    Elvis? was a bit before my time. Had occasion to drive past his former home once not what you would expect, by todays Holly weird standards.
    I've heard that Graceland isn't what many people would expect. Not like a "museum" so much as it is just a house left as it was when he lived there.

    I liked some of Elvis' stuff, but I never would have considered myself a "fan". I do understand the tremendous part he played in rock 'n roll history though, and I'll probably watch this when it becomes available on tv.

    When I worked for BMG Music Club (formerly RCA Music Club), I worked with a lady that had been there since the RCA days and she remembered Elvis visiting our facility when he was just a (her word) "kid".
